Iran PressAmerica: As of April 24, 2022, the number of both confirmed and presumptive positive cases of the COVID-19 disease reported in the United States had reached almost 81 million and 989 thousand deaths were reported among these cases.

US Vice-President Kamala Harris has tested positive for COVID-19, according to the White House, as the US eases restrictions in a bid to revert to pre-pandemic normalcy.

The White House said on Tuesday (local time) that Harris tested positive on both rapid and PCR tests, and said she had "exhibited no symptoms".

Harris, 57, received her first dose of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine weeks before taking office and a second dose just days after Inauguration Day in 2021.

She received a booster shot in late October and an additional booster on April 1. 219
